PLEASE HELP ILL MARK BRAINLIEST: Ally weighs 5 pounds more than Carla. Carla weighs 2 pounds more than Rita. Together their weights total 333 pounds. How much does Carla weigh

Respuesta :

Step-by-step explanation:

let the weight of Rita be x

weight of Carla = 2 pounds mre than Rita so = 2 + x

weight of Ally = 5 pounds more than Carla = so 5 + ( 2 + x )

also,

sum of their weight is 333 punds ( given )

so the equation is,

5 + ( 2 + x ) + 2 + x + x = 333

9 + 3x = 333

3x = 333 - 9 = 324

x = 324/3 = 108

so,

Carla's weight = 2 + x = 108 + 2 = 110 pounds.

hope this answer helps you dear...take care!
